The Stained Glass Museum is the only museum dedicated to the art of stained glass in the UK. The museum boasts a nationally-significant collection of stained glass, associated designs, materials and tools which reveal the development of this unique art from the 13th century to present day.

The museum’s permanent gallery space is located in the triforium of Ely Cathedral. It houses a chronological display featuring stained glass from the museum’s own collection as well as from partner organisations the V&A and the Royal Collection. Displayed at eye-level, visitors can experience this art form at close quarters.

An engaging learning programme for all ages sees practical glass workshops led by professional artists, talks, tours and family activities held throughout the year.
